Holiday Inn Phuket Mai Khao review

This lap pool at Holiday Inn Phuket Mai Khao always set our hearts fluttering.
Imagine living on the first floor, our swimming suits will never be dry!

Our rooms over 4D3N were the two bedrooms family suite (83sqm). Kids were actually assigned a Junior Suite, but the room will be on another block, end up we chose two Family Suites.

Kids got their own LCD but I suspect the only console they need is the PS3!

Love how Holiday Inn makes an extra effort to ensure kids are catered to. Juniors got their own shower kit, there is a stool for them to ensure they are tall enough to brush their teeth too.

If they wish, kids can choose their own cartoon linens too! Parents will be impressed with the attention lavished on details.

Kids definitely have it better. Compare their bathtub with adult’s single shower head 🙁

Parents will be jealous of the kids’ humongous bathtub! In case any parents wish to hijack the romantic bathtub, do take note kids will have a full view from their room :p

Holiday Inn Phuket Mai Khao’s Junior Suites (69sqm) also come with two rooms and yes, PS3 too. The only difference is Junior suite comes with bunk beds!

Looking at Boon Xin’s expression, our vacation at Holiday Inn Phuket Mai Khao has got off to a good start.

From the first picture above, this is the pool view from within a Deluxe room! Guests can literally leap into the pool from their living room. Official Hotel policy needs child to be above certain age before room is available for booking (just to be safe).

Activities galore at Holiday Inn Phuket Mai Khao resort. There is always something going on for everyone from young to old, most activities are free.

Water polo or soccer anyone?

Boys love table tennis and darts.

There is always the pristine and deserted Mai Khao Beach facing the Andaman sea.

Love the huge comfortable lounge. We can literally doze off and enjoy the breeze.

The open green landscaped field, kids always prefer to walk on the lawn than pavement.

Lunch at Khun Pa, decorated like a street walk eatery. Guests can get to enjoy Thai street food.
Quite authentic, I would say.

The fruits are real, but the seller is trying to act cute. Watermelon or pineapple anyone?

All respectable resorts come with a Kid’s Club, and Holiday Inn Phuket Mai Khao’s rock. Boon Xin checkin to this fun room every day! Friendly staff and plenty of activities keep the young ones occupied and entertained.

The huge ball pit proves a hit with older kids too.

Love this pool side couches at J’s Cafe and Restaurant. We can literally dine under the pool’s water level, just ensure kids keep their hands off the water!

Movie nights on Wednesday and Saturday evenings. Stars (Star gazing) are readily available from the open air “cinema”.

Adults are tired after a full day, but kids still want to play Fifa on their PS3.

We would like to shout Thank you Holiday Inn Phuket Mai Khao for sponsoring our stay and meals during our 4D3N vacation. If you are looking for a quiet and self-contained family friendly resort, we will strongly recommend Holiday Inn Phuket Mai Khao.

However, do take note that nightlife and street-food variety will not be available outside Holiday Inn’s Phuket Mai Khao resort, that would be another resort at Holiday Inn Phuket Patong.
